Governance and Standards
- About PointSav knowledge
PointSav Knowledge is the engineering documentation wiki for the PointSav platform, serving engineers, architects, and institutional readers.
- Anti-homogenization discipline
Anti-homogenization discipline resists AI writing assistants pulling contributors toward a single voice, by flagging potential issues rather than silently rewriting text.
- API key boundary discipline
The rule that all external LLM API credentials belong exclusively at the gateway service and never at inference engines.
- Architecture decisions
Twelve binding architecture decisions governing how the PointSav platform is built, constraining engineering work on data handling, oversight, and deployment custody.
- Canadian-simple copyright posture
The platform's IP vests in a single Canadian parent holding company by operation of Canadian Copyright Act § 13(3), without inter-company assignment.
- Compliance and continuous disclosure
The regulatory frameworks the PointSav architecture addresses, and its structural approach to exposing audit evidence continuously, not via annual certification.
- Contact
Contact information for PointSav Digital Systems and Woodfine Capital Projects Inc.
- Contributing to PointSav knowledge
How to propose additions, corrections, and new articles for PointSav Knowledge.
- Disclaimers
Disclaimer and terms of use for PointSav Knowledge, the engineering documentation wiki for the PointSav platform.
- Doctrine invention #7 — the integrity anchor
How Foundry's anchor-emitter binary posts a signed ledger checkpoint to Sigstore Rekor each month, providing independently verifiable, third-party evidence of workspace state.
- Legal and IP structure
The three-corporation topology governing IP transfer from contributor to vendor to customer, with squash-and-merge as the atomic IP-transfer event.
- Moonshot initiatives
Moonshot initiatives are active engineering programs building native replacements for quarantined third-party dependencies, reducing vendor lock-in.
- Ontological governance
Four reference vocabulary ledgers kept deliberately narrow, plus a human-verification loop that reviews extracted identity fragments before they enter the verified ledger.
- PointSav media kit
Media kit for PointSav Digital Systems: company description, wordmark and trademark usage terms, press-inquiry contacts, and the CC BY 4.0 licence covering this wiki's content.
- Procurement overview
What a regulated buyer acquires deploying PointSav: hardware the customer owns outright, data the vendor never holds, and compliance enforced by architecture.
- Sovereign airlock
The staged-commit protocol enforcing separation between staging identities and canonical repository identities — two staging authors, two admin push identities.
- Sovereign replacement initiative
The engineering governance program tracking third-party dependencies, isolating them in quarantine, and coordinating the moonshot programs replacing them.
- SYS-ADR-07: zero AI in Ring 1
SYS-ADR-07 prohibits AI inference from all Ring 1 boundary-ingest services, enforcing deterministic-only operations at the WORM write path.
- Three-tier contributor model
The Three-Tier Contributor Model organises substrate contributors into Core (4-7 engineers), Paid (50-100 contractors), and Open (10,000+ public), with mobility paths.
